Introduction to Optical
Communication
Introduction to Communication
A little bit of history
• The Morse telegraph was introduced in the 1860‘s.
Transmission rate: ∼1bit/s
Distance: Due to the application of relay stations: 1000km
• Invention of the telephone 1876.
• First coaxial cable system 1940 with the capability to transmit
300 voice channels.
• The first microwave system was put into service in 1948 with a
carrier frequency of 4GHz. Coaxial and microwave systems
were operating at 100Mbit/s. High speed coaxial systems need
repeater spacing of ∼1km.
